Suzanne Skeen Photo

I’m Suzanne Skeen — a portrait specialist based in Blackburn with over 20 years’ experience photographing people and businesses. My focus is simple: create professional portraits that feel like you. Whether you need a confident LinkedIn headshot, a fresh professional portrait for your website, or natural team imagery, I shape every session around personality, purpose and a relaxed atmosphere. Why choose Suzanne Skeen Photo? I treat portrait work as more than a photo-op. Great portraits build trust and make the first impression count. I take the time to understand who you are, what you want to communicate and where the images will be used. That means your headshots and portraits aren’t just well lit and composed — they’re designed to work for your business, your social profiles and your brand. My approach is warm, informal and practical. I work in studio and on location around Blackburn and the Ribble Valley, helping camera-shy clients feel at ease with a friendly, conversational process. Before the shoot we talk through styling, pose ideas and a tailored shot list so every minute of the session is intentional. For business portrait work I’ll focus on consistent frames and professional expressions suitable for LinkedIn, websites and marketing materials. Style-wise I favour honest, natural portraits: clean, contemporary and flattering without fuss. I’ll capture both polished headshots and relaxed, characterful images that show personality — the mix you need to stop the scroll and connect with your audience. If you’re booking team sessions or corporate headshots, I bring the same calm, organised energy to ensure a smooth, efficient shoot that delivers cohesive images for all uses. Beyond the camera, I’m passionate about helping small businesses present their best selves online. I’ve seen how the right portrait can change a first impression — and I love making that happen for my clients. If you’re in Blackburn or nearby and want portraits that look professional and feel authentic, get in touch and we’ll plan a session that puts you at ease and gives you images you’ll be proud to use.
